Kane — R.E. Saxton

Kane Winter is cold and unemotional, two assets that make him an excellent assassin. Danika Rich, widow of a murdered senator, inspires unaccustomed emotions, making him want to protect her. The passion he feels for Danika began to defrost his frozen heart, but he knows she can never love him when she learns he was the one who assassinated her husband. This novella shares a universe with R.E. Saxton's mafia characters, but isn't focused on the mafia. Please be aware there are dark themes and subjects included in this story, but it isn't a dark romance.
